PROVINZINO, NELSON, LAWRENCE, CHESLEY, SKEETER ESTEY WIN FEATURES ON PROCTOR CHAMPIONSHIP NIGHT
Hanson, Nelson, Peterlin, Lavato and Davis Are Track Season Champions
By Jerry O'Brien 

Harry Hanson of Eveleth, Mn won the track title in the WISSOTA Late Model division at the Proctor Speedway Sunday August 27. Going into the night Hanson had a 44 point lead over Darrell Nelson which effectively sewed up the championship. Hanson  finished the 20 lap feature in fifth two places behind his challenger Nelson. Jeff Provinzino took advantage of a caution flag on the initial circuit to blow past Hanson, Nelson, and Tim McMann taking the lead and driving away from the pack for the win. Nelson chased after Provinzino but failed to cut into his lead sufficiently enough to mount a challenge. Jeff Broking came home third several car lengths back of Nelson while McMann held off Hanson for fourth while Steve Laursen came from 15th to sixth in preparation for the 34th annual Silver 1000 set for Thursday August 31. 

The WISSOTA Modified point race was to be settled on the final night as Darrell Nelson held a 16 point lead over Don Copp. With Justin Jones in third 62 markers back, it would come down to the final 20 lap feature of the regular season. Nelson and Copp each won their respective heats so the 16 point advantage for Nelson did not change as the two started side by side on the front row. Copp grabbed the lead at the start after a caution with no laps in brought about a restart. Nelson soon gathered it back up and the two ran wheel to wheel for a couple of laps before Nelson got the edge off the fourth turn, took over the lead and just drove away from Copp until another caution flag just past the ten lap mark brought Copp back to Nelson's bumper. Nelson again drove away from Copp as the cars were flirting with disaster running in the high groove right on the edge of the track where one slip meant a trip off the surface. Running in third was Duane Dale with Nick Nelson fourth trying to take the third spot. Nelson dived to the inside of Dale too hard and the two slapped doors resulting in a Nelson spin and the final caution flag. When racing resumed Nelson drove away from Copp for his sixth feature win of the season and the track title. Dale held onto third ahead of Matt Sorenson and Jeff Wood in the top five. 

Entering the WISSOTA Super Stock feature Kyle Peterlin held a 10 point lead over fellow Iron Ranger Jeff Tardy. Tardy took the lead at the green flag with Jay Kuras, Peterlin, Ryan Aho and Scott Lawrence following. Kuras grabbed second but Tyler Kintner brought out the caution flag with a spin in turn one. Kuras got a great start and shot into the lead over Tardy with Lawrence to third ahead of Aho, Peterlin and Robbie Cooper. At the half way point Kuras still led Tardy with Peterlin looking to remain consistent trying to stay in the top five so as to not let Tardy gain too many points. It all became a moot point, however, when Tardy departed with mechanical problems. After a caution flag, Lawrence shot into the lead and led the rest of the way for his second feature win of the season. Aho, Kuras, Peterlin and Steve Estey rounded out the top five. Peterlin's fourth place finish was enough to give him the 2006 track title. Peterlin had a consistent season scoring no feature wins but seldom finished out of the to five. 

Greg Chesley made a run at leader Nick Lavato in the Midwest Modified feature late in the 20 lap event to take his fifth feature win of the season, but to no avail as Lavato had the points race wrapped up entering the final night with a 56 point bulge over second place man Mark Kangas and Chesley who were tied for second. Deven Van House, Monty Hall and MWM rookie Randy Vezina rounded out the top five. 

Ricky Davis was on the verge of his second Pure Stock championship as he had won the title at the ABC Raceway on Saturday night. He and second place man Tony Ciurleo maintained a 10 point difference going into the 15 lap main event by virtue of a heat win apiece. Davis led past the half way point but slipped a bit letting Skeeter Estey through to the point. Davis seemed to slow a bit more and Glen Dammer and Jon McKinnon got by toward the finish, Estey won his first feature at the Proctor Speedway and second of the weekend. Dammer, McKinnon, Davis and Andrew LaBarge rounded out the top five. LaBarge raced forward from the 12th starting spot to a top five finish. Davis' fourth place finish coupled with Ciurleo's slip to 8th was enough to give Davis the championship.
